[lace] Lace8

Hi All   Lace8 is great - if you  haven't upgraded and have a computer that is compatibly buy it now if only for the new print preveiw option.  There are lots of other new features, some of which I like and some not so much but the print preview is wonderful.  Gone are the days when you have to

RE: [lace] Lace8

I have upgraded too. I also love the print preview and the fact you can put a picture on the design page and of course the fact you can save as a JPG file. Daphne Hot Norfolk where there is a threat of rain. Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2012 12:14:25 +0100 From: angelal...@btinternet.com Subject:

Re: [lace] Lace8

I also like the print preview, having multiple designs open at once, grouping items, bold lines on girds and drawing twists but I miss the preview file on opening; the zoom and centre button; all layers on / all layers off choice; and find it long-winded to do various other things which were

Re: [lace] Lace8

Has the re-do button been re-instated? I understand this was in the first version but is missing from R-XP. Annoying when you have drawn in a long trail and the lose the rhythm and go wrong. Hit undo instead of item select, delete. Those of you that use the programme will know that undo

Oh yes! That is probably the best bit!! The re-do button is BACK! Sorry, I forgot to mention that Sue sueba...@comcast.net -Original Message- From: laceandb...@aol.com Sent: Sunday, July 01, 2012 9:11 AM To: lace@arachne.com Subject: Re: [lace] Lace8 Has the re-do button been

[lace] Sebalace Bobbin winder

I’ve had a query from a lacemaker in Tenerife, does anyone know where you can get a rubber ring for the Sebalace metal bobbin winder? Many thanks Susan --- Susan Roberts http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/susanroberts - To unsubscribe send

Re: [lace] Sebalace Bobbin winder

Hi Susan and fellow Arachnids, I use a vacuum cleaner drive belt from an electrical goods shop. There is also a drive belt in some videos that fits. So a radio/TV repair shop might be able to help you. Take your winder to your friendly repair shop(s) to try. Mine was fascinated and quite

[lace] The Hollow Crown

Guys,   Have any of you watched the new Shakespear trillogy opening play; Richard II.   Yes I know it's machine lace but the gold lace in Ben Wishaws white tunic gown was mesmerising.  The guy can recite shakespear beautifully but I kept tuning out to look at the pattern.   I've googled but can't

Angela and others:   Has anyone found any problems in opening designs done under R-XP or 2000 with the new Lace 8?   Thanks, Nancy Connecticut, USA From: Angela angelal...@btinternet.com To: Arachne lace@arachne.com Sent: Sunday, July 1, 2012 7:14 AM Subject:

[lace] Lace Magazine

I was wondering did anybody else besides me just get their April issue of Lace magazine this week. I was surprise to see it in the mail so I am just wondering what took it so long to get here.  Wind To Thy Wings, Sherry celticdreamwe...@yahoo.com http://celticdreamweaver.com/

Re: [lace] Lace8

No, that has been possible - back to .lc5 files anyway. I couldn't track down my .lc1 files to try out. They now get saved as .lc8, so you will need Lace8 to open any of the files saved as .lc8. You can't share them with R-XP users for instance Sue sueba...@comcast.net -Original

One thing I've had a problem with is selecting items in designs which were done in R-XP. If I want to delete a dot, I can't do it by right clicking and I can't mark it with select item. I have to use Group select and then it will mark it. Same thing happens with other items from a Lace R-XP

The rich are different from you and me. Far be it from me to impune the coolness of the queen, fashionwise or body temperaturewise, but the kinds of clothing that people like her wear are very different. I once went to an exhibit of Jackie Kennedy's clothing. There was a wrap skirt. I

There is that, definitely. Weighted hems keep matters in order, on most windy days, too. On Sun, Jul 1, 2012 at 2:21 PM, dmt11h...@aol.com wrote: I think that couturiers may know a few things about how to make a garment that doesn't wrinkle, ie, interfacing, linings, etc. -- Bev in

RE: [lace] Lace8

Jean, as you might imagine, that was one of the first things I tested. And I've just opened a couple of RXP files to try again, both of which work OK for me. I use the Item Select button all the time and don't have any trouble with selecting a particular dot with the Item Select button.
